After Transmigrating into a Book as the Scheming Villainous Regent

Xie Gongqiu transmigrated into the body of the Regent Prince of Great Yu, a notorious, same-sex-loving prince with no blood ties to the imperial family. He always wore a mask and never showed his face. Everyone said he was hideously ugly and therefore insane. He was ruthless and wielded power over the court, forming cliques and throwing the government into chaos. He was at daggers drawn with the aloof Crown Prince's Imperial Tutor and locked in a fight to the death with the valiant Great General... He even seized a peerlessly beautiful person and imprisoned them in his estate, forcing them to become his spouse.

He was loathed by gods and men alike. Even beggars and children wanted to curse him, and stray dogs on the road wanted to gnaw on his flesh.

Fortunately, the beauty bided their time and endured hardship, then cut off the head and "descendants" of the eccentric prince and struck him down beneath them. And so the tyrant met his end.

Xie Gongqiu, waking on his wedding night: Fucking hell...

As far as the eye could see, the whole vast empire was full of enemies.

And the danger closest at hand was right before him. "My beauty, get some rest. Spend tonight in my humble home, and tomorrow I'll give you a mansion and shops. You can live your good life, and I'll live mine. We'll divorce, or no, you can divorce me!"

Shen Yungui, who had intended for them to die together: ? What is this bastard prince up to?

-

Recently, the court of Great Yu had become remarkably peaceful. The usually arrogant and overbearing Regent Prince had gone meek.

The Crown Prince's Imperial Tutor said one thing, and he would never say another. He would immediately agree: "The Grand Tutor is right. The Grand Tutor has taught me well."

The valiant Great General wanted to fight him to the death. "No, no, no. What kind of decorum is there in fighting all day? It's so uncivilized. I humbly concede, I humbly concede."

The Chancellor played chess with him and discussed strategy. "I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare. This realm is better off belonging to the Yu family."

The ministers: "?"

His subordinates, A, B, C, and D, and his spies, A, B, C, and D: "??"

Outsiders claimed that the Emperor had scared the Regent Prince out of his wits, and that he would never dare cause trouble again.

Xie Gongqiu watched his life grow more and more comfortable and prosperous. He stopped pretending, took off his mask, and strutted around the Prince's residence. Then he turned left and ran into the Crown Prince's Imperial Tutor, turned right and ran into the valiant Great General, and even encountered the spouse who had divorced him, along with the Emperor, who had come to the residence to inspect the work.

Xie Gongqiu: "Anyone up for a game of mahjong...?"

Don't come any closer! I just want to scrape by!

I only want to be a couch potato. I never planned on making a comeback, okay!
